Balance On This:
Get Started Here:
Create your own unique combo with this board. Add the Balls and Half Balls that meet your training needs. Features an adjustable rail that can be lengthened in 4" inch sections. A great board choice for those who will grow with their board and want to practice a wide range of stances.
3" Mini Balls:
3" Mini Ball is quick, responsive and requires fine tuning of your movements and board control as you lean forward and backward. Perfectly sized with the dimensions of the Turbo Starter to get the best ride with carving turns and movement transitions from foot to foot. If using on an extremely padded surface or deep carpet these balls will be absorbed and limit your ride motion. Use two Balls to create a Double Pivot Board and then progress your skills to one Ball.
5" Small Balls:
This advanced ball requires you to have good ankle mobility and the skills to start at a steep angle. Ride nice and high above the ground for endless turns and carving with fast speeds. When grounding the board forward or backward the angle is steep and sometimes it's easier to jump off.
5" Half Balls:
5" Half Balls allow you to create your own Wobble or Rocker board. Perfect for skill progression with lower body balance and upper body complex moves for greater posture awareness. Fast tilt and very responsive movements develop your reaction skills. Great for movement transitions from hands to feet and full body balance for core training for small riders.
6.5" Half Balls:
These larger Half Balls are great for advanced users wanting more tilt and range of motion. Perfect for progressing to larger movements and full body challenge like the quadruped, push-ups and dips for small users. Place the 3" Mini Balls inside of the 6.5" Half Ball to create the Thrasher or Rock and Roll advanced combo. Place the 5" Ball inside the 6.5" Half Ball to create the Big Drop combo.
Extend Your Rail and Ride Space
Customize Your Balance Board!
All Si Boards Starter Boards come with an adjustable urethane rail. All parts are interchangeable with the same interlocking joint system. Starter Boards come with a smaller rail compared to the Original Boards and give you the option to extend your rail to the maximum ride space. Progress or regress your ride space based on your skills.
Can I Use 4" Extensions?
Yes! This extension length gives your 20" of ride space similar to our Turbo Original. If using existing hole configuration your rail will be offset more to the back or front of the board. An offset rail will focus your ride skills to either the back or front of the board. If you want a centered rail you will need to drill a completely new hole pattern. the extra 4" Extensions will max our our ride space. a 6.5" Half Ball and 5" Ball would be the best option under the extended board.
Can I use 8" Extensions?
Nope! Sorry but there is not enough room to add 8" Extensions.
Elysia's Notes:
I have enjoyed watching kids learn how to balance on the Turbo Starter. The rail size is perfect for small feet compare to the Turbo Original. They confidently learn the board movements and how to engage their muscles. It is fast and a very tight ride area compared to any other board. It is a unique ride to keep the board level to avoid grounding the sides. When I use this board I know I can completely control the motion and multi-task.

Basic Combos: From Beginner to Advanced
1. Rocker Board: 2 Half Balls
Place Half Balls flat side up for faster tilt. Using two creates a Rocker Board that tilts in 2 directions - Left and Right for example. The farther the Half Balls are from one another, the more stable the surface. You can place them very close together for more challenge. This is great for holding a position and rocking the board left and right to activate your muscle coordination.
2. Wobble Board: 1 Half Ball
Place 1 Half Ball under your board and it will tilt in all directions and allow you to twist the board. Place in the center for an equal weight distribution. Place to the side and you will activate the side directly over the Half Ball. This is great for developing strength on one side if it is weaker or unable to function the same after an injury.
3. Single Pivot Board: 1 Half Ball and 1 Ball
Place 1 Half Ball under the left side of the board and 1 Ball under the right side of the board. The left side will tilt front to back and the right side will pivot or slide forward and backward. A great progression to learning how to activate hip rotation on a moving board on one side of your body.
Best set up: 3" Ball and 6.5" Half Ball or 5" Ball and 8.5" Half Ball
4. Double Pivot Board: 2 Balls
Use 2 of the same sized ball under your board to activate each side in rotation. Placing the Balls close is more difficult. You will get multi-direction motion without the extreme tilting from left to right feet. A perfect combo for advanced skills like surf pop-up, quadruped, deep squats and adding difficult upper body battle rope exercises while maintaining balance.
5. Multi-Direction Board: 1 Ball
The heart of the Si Board is riding on 1 Ball for a multi-direction platform. The freedom to move left/right, front/back, twist, diagonal, clockwise/counterclock and 360 spins all at the same time. This is the most advanced balance board skill to learn fine motor skill and full body awareness.
Specialty Combos: for Unpredictable Training
6. Rock and Roll: Small Ball inside of Half Ball x 2
Placing a small Ball inside the Half Ball creates two moving surfaces. The small Ball rolls around inside of the Half Ball. The Half Ball is placed flat side up and creates a rocking or wobble motion. Four moving surfaces that keep you level and don't allow the board to roll to extremes. You feel all surfaces continuously knock into each other abruptly. Perfect for deep stance endurance simulating rough water and windy conditions.
Use these combos:
- 3" Mini Ball rolling inside a Vortex 5" Half Ball or 6.5" Half Ball at each end
- 5" Small Ball rolling inside a 8.5" Half Ball at each end
7. Thrasher: Small Ball inside of Half Ball x 1
Placing a small Ball inside the Half Ball creates two moving surfaces. The small Ball rolls around inside of the Half Ball. The Half Ball is placed flat side up and creates a rocking or wobble motion. Two moving surfaces that give you extreme tilts in all direction with slight board rolling. Perfect for holding your push-up position against an opponent and a narrow squat with very quick foot reactions.
Use these combos:
- 3" Mini Ball rolling inside a Vortex 5" Half Ball or 6.5" Half Ball
- 5" Small Ball rolling inside a 8.5" Half Ball
8. Ball Big Drop: Medium Ball fixed tight inside a large Half Ball
Wedge a Ball inside the Half Ball so that the two parts do not move. You have two different sized balance points and this gets you up high off the ground. You will teeter/hover around and just as the Half Ball gets to the edge you will feel a fast drop to the ground. Reaction to this feels like a sudden drop and being able to control landing on you sport board.
Use these combos:
- 5" Small Ball fixed tight inside a 6.5" Half Ball
- 6.5" Medium Ball fixed tight inside a 8.5" Half Ball
